I don't know who or where you are but the media doing a damn fine job of completely ignoring B. Sanders. What is it going to take to light a fire under everybody and get him some recognition? I may be preaching to the choir, but the corporate funded media is simply ignoring the fact that some people are really fed up with this system. Will this country repeat history and end up in a revolution orchestrated by the very people you and I abhor - not the wealthy, but the "salt of the earth", the sort of people who'd love to string up free thinking people like you and me? I'm in a professional business and it's scary in the way I hear some people talking about their protecting "freedom"and their loved ones and pit bulls (sorry, I'm in Florida). Anyway, my 2 cents. History does repeat itself.

You just spent the last few posts complaining about skinner and you are now trying to hrmjustin May 2015 #33

HAHA.. "you have nothing of substance to offer.." coming from mr "nothing to contribute but Cha May 2015 #43

I hope he shares his. hrmjustin May 2015 #46

It's been hidden. I learned from this. eloydude May 2015 #49

You posted this as well. hrmjustin May 2015 #51

You are hilarious. The world does not revolve around you. Go start your own website: it's free. Hekate May 2015 #93

.. Cha May 2015 #129

Oh joy. Why do people fall for it? Hekate May 2015 #132

Give you one guess.. Cha May 2015 #134

you have the patience of a saint dlwickham May 2015 #30

. hrmjustin May 2015 #34

Yup. Agschmid May 2015 #38

Oh, he's "starting to feel uncomfortable here".. Cha May 2015 #39

Hypocrisy is abound.... eloydude May 2015 #50

Too bad you're starting to feel uncomfortable.. Go Tell Skinner all About your feelings. Cha May 2015 #55

There are Bernie avatars... one_voice May 2015 #56

I give up. eloydude May 2015 #57

I predict your discomfort won't last very long. nt BainsBane May 2015 #102

I'm pretty sure Skinner still has okasha May 2015 #107

He's been here a whole month and already knows how the site ought to be run. Amazing. Hekate May 2015 #112

Well, MOVEON, then, if that is the case. Don't expect people to beg you to stay here. MADem May 2015 #108

Wow ... malokvale77 May 2015 #78

Explains what? hrmjustin May 2015 #82

a democrat supporting a democrat on a democratic site is making some uncomfortable ? JI7 May 2015 #85

Especially on a big website, Skinner and the admins should be neutral eloydude May 2015 #87

but they have never been neutral which is why they made the site in the first place JI7 May 2015 #88

I've known that DU has always been DLC-affiliated eloydude May 2015 #90

nobody is forced to post on this site JI7 May 2015 #91

No one is forcing you to participate in such an site you think BainsBane May 2015 #104

He can. Agschmid May 2015 #122

Yup. Agschmid May 2015 #121

I did not know this Mojorabbit May 2015 #94

so are you going to stop posting here ? JI7 May 2015 #96

I don't know. I have been here for years. I have to take this information in. Mojorabbit May 2015 #98

Disappointed in what? he designed a website. hrmjustin May 2015 #100

That new site should be called DLCMojo. BeanMusical May 2015 #99

Agreed dreamnightwind May 2015 #128

Thanks for the link. BeanMusical May 2015 #106

Do a GOFUNDME and start working on it. That site is unrelated to this one. MADem May 2015 #105

I'm betting on Skinner.. not your predictable negative bull. Cha May 2015 #7

I'm being negative? eloydude May 2015 #11

How about celebrating the video and Bernie's ideas? Do you think he runs about dissing websites? n/t freshwest May 2015 #13

I love the video and Bernie's ideas eloydude May 2015 #16

I don't focus on things to fight about. Our candidates don't. And no one posted that video at DU. freshwest May 2015 #28

Dude, I'm on your side... eloydude May 2015 #31

Give up. They're going with the money. L0oniX May 2015 #68

Say what? My money that is going to Bernie eloydude May 2015 #70

I don't think that was the meaning. delrem May 2015 #80

They can certainly spend 2.5 billion on voter outreach and education eloydude May 2015 #81

Sorry, that doesn't make much sense. delrem May 2015 #83

Bernie is exponentially better than some of his supporters who give the campaign a mean spirited Cha May 2015 #22

I'm being mean spirited? eloydude May 2015 #23

Yeah, you are.. especially when you refered to the Hillary Group as a "toxic wasteland". Cha May 2015 #27

Sorry that you don't like the wording eloydude May 2015 #29

I wasn't the only one who thought it was vile and says more about you than anything about Hillary's Cha May 2015 #32

I respect Hillary, but.... eloydude May 2015 #36

And who were you in 2008? Agschmid May 2015 #40

A lurker eloydude May 2015 #41

It's awfully hard to lurk and not participate... Agschmid May 2015 #42

I have participated before in another name.. eloydude May 2015 #44

Got it. Agschmid May 2015 #45

Were those emails, by chance, BainsBane May 2015 #86

Nope.. all my emails were polite eloydude May 2015 #89

What made you sign up now? hrmjustin May 2015 #71

Actually, it was you.. a Bernie Supporter who calls Hillary's Group "A toxic Wasteland".. Hillary's Cha May 2015 #58

FFS, the post was hidden, and you're still hung up over it? eloydude May 2015 #59

Don't talk about "The Hillary supporters are left to be desired." then if you don't want your Cha May 2015 #63

Then I challenge you and your fellow supporters to answer the question about TPP... in this thread.. eloydude May 2015 #72

I'm not taking any "challenges" from you. Just drop your ugly personal insults about Hillary's Cha May 2015 #75

Well let's get started Pat Jackson May 2015 #126

Interesting. hrmjustin May 2015 #127

Here is one of your hidden posts. You called me out by name. hrmjustin May 2015 #47

Yeah, but it was! Cha May 2015 #64

True. hrmjustin May 2015 #65

I wish I could see that hot mess. My browser says it's gone. freshwest May 2015 #114

It's not gone.. I don't why you're not able to see it. Cha May 2015 #119

Thanks. Every time I click on it says 'no there' and 'Apache' etc 'not detected'. freshwest May 2015 #120

That must have been some insult. It's been erased from the server. freshwest May 2015 #113

He called me and a few others out for supporting hillary. hrmjustin May 2015 #115

Such things are hostile and undemocratic. I hope DU improves soon. n/t freshwest May 2015 #116

Me too. hrmjustin May 2015 #118

I think you're a little confused there, Cha Scootaloo May 2015 #35

And, you have no clue.. figures. Yeah, Skinner has it goin' on.. you, not so much. Cha May 2015 #17

Fine. Clue me in. eloydude May 2015 #21

HillaryMojo, Skinner and EarlG's new site for all positive news (about Democrats) whereisjustice May 2015 #76

$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ delrem May 2015 #77

Yeah, because DU is sooooo positive in terms of electing Democrats. Too many DUers.... Hekate May 2015 #97

Seems to me DNC leadership fucked themselves when they shit on liberals at mid-terms. whereisjustice May 2015 #103

So you & your friends don't like the Admins. It begs the question: Why hang around here? Hekate May 2015 #109

we just want to be loved by corporate democrats... those socially liberal, whereisjustice May 2015 #110

My standard answer since 2002 for those who feel abused by the Admins is go start your own site Hekate May 2015 #111

you keep putting words in my mouth. let's see where I said I was abused... whereisjustice May 2015 #117

Obama immediatly threw progressives & the professional left under the bus 2009. L0oniX May 2015 #124

"Too many DUers would rather see all Dems defeated" <----- What a huge pant load. L0oniX May 2015 #123

Hey! When did he do that? Hekate May 2015 #84

May 26th? It was his official 'greet the world' event although he said so elsewhere. freshwest May 2015 #95

Sorry for not being clear -- I meant Skinner! Hekate May 2015 #101
